A Respectful Boy.

An exchange gives the following instance of a lads politeness. Such thoughtfulnes for others by young people is a most winning trait of character
 An old man entered a railroad car and was looking for a seat, when a boy ten or twelve years of age, rose up and said:
 ''Take my seat, sir.'
 The offer was accepted and the infirm old man sat down.
 "Why did you give me your seat" he inquired of the boy.
 ''Because yon are old sir, and l am a boyw was the reply.
 A hundred years ago there would have heen little need to re- cord as remarkable a similar incl dent. Among things that are good and hopeful m rising generation, there is one great change for the worse manifest to everybody-a declinining reverence toward age and toward God. Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head and hon. or the iace of the old man; and fear thy God: l am the Lord.n

How to Avoid Premature Old Age,

The following advice is given by Dr, Benjamin Ward Richardson:
 To subsist on light, but nuturi- ous diet, with milk as the standard food, but varied according to the season. take food four times in the day, including light meal be- fore going to bed.
 To clothe warmly but lightly, so that the body may in all seasons maintain an equal temperature.
 To keep the body in far eXer- else and the mind active and cheer. ful.
 To maintain an interest in what is going on in the world and to take part in reasonable labors aud pleasures, as though old age were not present.
 Take plenty of sleep during sleeping hours. To spend 9 honrs in bed, at least, and to take care during cold weather that the tenn. peratnre of the bed room is main. famed ai 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
 To avoid passion, excitement uxnry.

Cultivating the Heart.

We hear it frequently said that what is needed to carry onward the good work of the world is more heart. The remark is true. This quality is needed in the pull, pit-not less brains but more pie ty' It is needed in many works of charity-not less system but more sympathy. It is needed in the home not less stress and force of wise government but more affections. This work can be done Each one must study for himself the measure in which 1t needs to be done in his case, There are those who are royalty gifted in mental endOwmentS but who are lacking on the aflectional side. Such need to cultivate their hearts. Perhaps no one has ever too much heart; if any one has, its faults are more easily forgiven. If one is conscious that he has too little heart, let him set himself to practical work for the good of his fellows. and he will find his afiec- tionS growing apace, Practical sympathy Is d great promoter of atfcctionatc interest When we do anything for the benefit of an other, we cannot help being afiec- toned toward him. Let us culti, vate for use in all the spheres of life not mere W eak sentiment, but genuine heart love. Anonymous.

HABITS OF PRINTERS.
Something About the Most Gen. erous and inprovident Class
 of Toilers.

Printers, as rule are not q pro- vident class although they receive wages equal to those of nearly any skilled mechanic and larger than many. A type setter on a morn ing paper, if he be a fast" man, usually "pastes up q string at the tend of the week that will meas ure him all the way from SIS to S2S. The expert morning news. paper printer seldom works over five nights in a week. He gene rouSly contributes one of his nights to the sub" who is posted on the forman's list; and who is either unable to secure regular ceases" or who is carrying the banner from town to town. The regular who lays off in this way is rarely other than generous fel- low. He is anxious that his less fortunate craftsman may have a chance to earn d few dollars, and when he is idle is not unirequent- ly found spending his money with lavish hand. This however was more strictly the case in days gone by, when a printer was not print CT until he had circumnavigated the globe or travelled at least over the En nglish-speaking part of it. The printer nowadays who wanders from place to place is regarded with more or less suspicion.
 A printer whose eyes have be. come dim from following the boxes and whose shoulders have become bent until his chin rests almost upon his chest, from his lifelong toll at the "casen told me the oth. CT day that he had been set
 
 ting type for thirty years. "Du- ring that time," he said, q have held cases in every city of over one hundred thousand inhabitants in the United States and have earned from S15 to S15 week. In the days of the war, l worked in Philadelphia for awhile, and earn ed so much money in three days that my time during the sue ceeding four nights of the week was occupied in getting rid of it. Other printers were like me; in fact. there were not half a dozen who saved anpthing. Since the war however, prices for compost ton dropped. l can think of a great many of my old chums who have struck money saving gait. built comfortable homes, and got down to business. There are quite a number of compOs itors on the New York, Chicago, and St Louis papers who are worth good deal. Union Printer,

Severe on Republican Papers,

A gathering of journalists m Syracuse. recently, was hospitably entertained by Senator Hiscock and other prominent citizens. among the places visited was the State Idiot Asylum. Of their vis- it the Utica Observer remarks:
 There was meeting of the managers of the institution that af- ternoon and jt was pleasant to find such men as Bishop lluntlnton and Judge Geo. F. C0mstock, interest ed in the work. It seemed at least to one of the visitors that the labors of Judge Comstock were pc culiarly unseltish, since he is not only an able iurist but a died-in- the-woo Democrat, and yet he knows that in a few years m the natural course of things these poor charges, all misshapen in mind, with only the feehlest rills oflntel- ! ligence running within their de- formed heads, will he editing many of the Republican papers of this State.

FACING DEATH FRlVoLoUsLY.

Ut is more thas passing strange to me- said a downtown minister, how little the immediate prospect of death seems to affect some peO- pie. The disposition of their i'm mortal souls seems to be but sec ondary as compared with their ap. pearauce in the coffin and their flu. neral arrangements. The other day l was called to the the bed. side of a young lady who was very i'll. While ] was there the physi- clan gravely shook his head and said the patient would die that night. She looked a little put out and when the doctor went l asked If might pray and was requested to wait few moments. l retired to another room, and to my sur prise, l heard the young woman ask her mother for some paper with which she proceeded to pat up her hair, remarking at the same time: Ma, do not take the papers out of my hair until 1 am in the coffin, for l might as well look as nice as I can, since there will he so many come 10 see me- An you newspaper men always smile at such things, but it was simply aw- full to me.-Philadelphia Call.

selves; "SIie is just the right sort of girl n' The young Ecn of the town vie with one another as to
 who will show her the most atten- ton, but she never encourages them beyond heinz simply kind
 and jolly so no one can call her ah;rt; no indeed, the young men all deny
 the assertion as quickly as she.
 Girls-w wonderful 10 relate like her, too, for she never delights in
 hurting their feelings, or saying spiteful things behind. She is al ways willing to join in their little plans and to assist them in any
 way. They go to her with their love affairs, and she manages adroilly to see Willie or Peter, and drop a good word ill for Ida or Lizzie, until their little difficulties are all patched up and everything goes on smoothly again-thanks to her. old ladies say she is ''de- lightful.n The sly witch, she knows how to maliage them. She listens
 patiently to complaints of rheuma-
 tism or neuralgia and then sympa-
 thises so heartily that they are more than half cured. But she cannot always be with us. X young man comes from aneighbor. ing town after time and marries her. The villagers crowd around to tell him what prize he has won. But he seems to know it pret-
 ty well without any telling to judge from his face. So she leaves us, but itis not long until we hear from that place; she is there the woman that every body likes. .-Ex.

ATGTrill1 Surgical Operation
4. FATAL MISTAKE.

E S'~eSso''''' OJ N"'5 of February 23d, 1883, pub- lished an account of a fatal surgical operation which caused a great commotion among med ical men throughout the whole country, Dr. Thayer. the most eminent surgeon ill Cleveland, oronouncing it scanlalous. It appears that a Mrs. King had been suffering for many years from some disease of tie Stom- ach, which had resisted the treatment of all the physicians in attendance. The disease commenced with a slight de- engagement of the digestion, with a poor appetite, followed
 
 by q peculiar indescribablc dis trcss in the stomach, a feeling that has been described as a faint "all gone" sensation, a sticky slime collecting about the teeth, causing a disagree able taste. This sensation was not removed by food, but, on the contrary, it was increased. After a while the hands and feet became cold and sticky a cold precipitation. There was constant tired and lan- guid feeling. Then followed a dreadful nervousness, with gloomy forcbodings. Finally the patient was unable to re- tain any food whatever, and there was constant pain in the abdomen. All prescribed rem- edies failing to 2 ve relief, a consultation was | Il, when it was decided that the patient had a cancer in the stomach, and in order tosave hepatient's life an operation was justif- able. Accordingly, on the 22d of February, 1883, the opera tion was performed by Dr. Vance in the presence of Dr. Tuckerman, Dr. Pcrrler, Dr. Arms, Dr. Gordon, Dr. Capner, and Dr. Halliwell of the Police Board. Tine operatien consist ed in laying open the cavity of the abdomen and exposing the stomach and bowels. When this had been done #, eXamin- ation of the organs ' s made, but to the ] olIor % | dismay of the do"to:S t,5a was no cancer to be found. The pa tient did not have a cancer. When too late the medical men discovered that they had made a terrible mistake; but they sewed the parts together and dressed the wound that they had made, but the poor woman sank from exhaustion anu ulcd in a few hours. How sad it must be for the husband of this poor woman to know that his wife died from the effects of a surgical operation that ought never to have been performed. If this woman had taken the proper remedy for Dyspepsia and Nervous ProStratlon for this was what the disease really wasj, she would have been llv- ing today. SnAkEH EXTRACT OF RooTs, or SEIoHLS CURATIVE SYRUP, a remedy made ex- pressly for Dyspc lsia or lndi- gestion, has restcr dmany such cases to perfect health after all other kinds of treatment have failed. The evidence of its efficacy in curing this class of cases is too vo,unmous to be published lcrc; but those who read thc la;ali,Aed evidence in favor of :. q ,'Spcptic remedy do not que% Fl jl, convincin" nature, and the article has all extensive sale.

Faster Overland Trains.

The San Francisco Bulletin of last even
ing says: Arrangements are now being
made for still better and quicker overland
service by the Central and Union Pacific
roads than at present. If proper under
standing can be reached with connecting
lines, and necessary changes on their sys-
TENS arranged, which is considered most
probable, the Southern Pacific will an
nounce new time schedule ABOUT the Dist
inst, or at the latest by the first of the
year. At present one of the overland
trains of the Central Pacific, which
leaves this city daily in the morning, will
set the traveller down in the Grand Central
depot. New York, in little more than FIVE
days. By the planned schedule q saving of
time will be effected between here and
Ogden, between Ogden and Omaha and at
Chicago, so that, according to all calcu-
lations, traveller may go across the CONT
nent from San Francisco to New York in
about four days and eighteen hours. The
new schedule, as outlined. will change the
time of arrival and departure of trains
The morning overland will leave here at I
O'Clock instead of 7:30, and the afternoon
at o'clock instead of o'clock, as at pres
ent. The 5 o'clock train will reach Ogden
at the same time it does by the present
schedule. The Central overland trains will
arrive here by the new arrangement at $40
A. NJ. and l1:40 A. NJ, daily. The new
schedule will make the through time from
New York to Los Angeles by the way of
Chicago, Omaha, Ogden, Sacramento and
Iathrop five days and twelve hours. The
proposed fast time is the result largely of
conferences conducted by General Passen-
ger Agent Goodman while in the East, and
of the fast-incressing competition of the
middle overland lines with the Santa Fe
and connections

GOVERNOR STANFoRD's bill to reform
the naturalization law provides simply that
when aliens are Of age on arrival, they
shall remain ten years in the country be-
fore they can put on the regalia of
citizenship. If the alien arrives under the
age of 81, then six years residence is to be
sufficient. And what is there in this that
is not reasonable? If it had extended the
term to twenty-one years, there are in the
Union legions of voters who would express
their approval at the polls, if need be.
Ten years extension is very moderate in
crease of the probationary term, and will
not be opposed by any thoughtful people
who have the best interests of republican
institutions at heart.

THE PosToFFICE SITE AGAIN.

A day or two ago the RECoRD-UNIoN
suggested that there might be some way
out of the unfortunate dilemma which, it is
supposed, postpones the erection of the
Federal building in this city for four Or
five years. 1t had seemed to this journal
from the beginning that the required
abandonment of State jurisdiction over
soil occupied by the General Government
was relic of some ancient tradition,
rather than requisite essential at the
present to the preservation of the equal
balance of authority and the conservation
alike of the rights of State and Federal
Governments. BY reference to letter in
another column from ex-United States
Senator Booth, it will be seen that there
are others who take a like view of the
moss-grown law. 1t appears, by Senator
Booths letter, that the regulation is one
Congress may suspend. That it did do so
in the case Of the city of Denver, and that
if proper appeal is made to Congress in
behalf of Sacramento, in all probability
Z like privilege will be extended to us. 1t
is said that Representative Mckenna has
already introduced a bill waving the
Federal demand for cession of the site
until the next Legislature meets. OF
course the entire delegation will support
the bill, but it will be wise to give
them all possible aid, for in the
multiplicity of bills before Congress and
the pressure Of business upon the Califor-
whelmed and lost Governor Booths let
ter points out that the provision regarding
cession in the appropriation bill, and
which appears to be barnacle that Con-
gress has never been able to shake off, is OF
no value, and is rather a hindrance to Fed
eral work. AS San Francisco is equally
interested with Sacramento in this matter,
we will have her cooperation in moving
upon Congress to sweep this traditional
stop to the way of progress aside, that
when the increased appropriation for Sac
ramento's building is made, as Governor
Stanford proposes shall be done, the work
may begin and go on without interruption
to completion.
Since the foregoing was in type, dis
patch from Washington recites that Rep
resentative McKenna thinks that a bill
waving the proviso regarding cession of the
site is unnecessary under the rulings of the
Attorney-General and the Treasury De
partment. 1t is to be hoped that Mr.. Me
Kenna is correct in his view. But it will
suggest itself to him that it will be wise tt
secure an affirmative ruling in this case
that any doubt concerning it may be re
moved. If the Treasury Department de.
clines to rule upon it, then Congress may
be asked to make the waiver. AS the De
partment has already advised Sacramento
that her building cannot be erected unit
the Legislature passes the bill ceding juris
diction, the rulings referred to by Mr.. Nc
Kenna must have been made since then
If so, it will not be difficult to have then
applied directly to the Sacramento case.

Fortune is Fickle.

Say the cavaliers, but we have observed that
she usually attends genuine merit. She
has been the faithful handmade of Hostel
in its career. That is because the Ameri-
can and other enlightened people lave per-
ceived that it really eradicates fever and
ague, kidney and bladder complaints, dys-
pepsia, constipation. debility and nervous
troubles.
